No, they are not the same. A resistor is a current reducer and a relay is essentially a switch (using low voltage to switch high voltage on/off)

Is it an Engine coolant blower motor relay same as a blower motor resistor?
no
Are turn signal relay and flasher the same thing?
The turn signal relay and the flasher relay are the exact same thing. The relay switch controls the turn signals.
What is the relay next to the glow plug relay?
air charge resistor relay
No power at the blower motor resistor?
Since you're checking the resistor, I would assume you checked the fuse/relay for the blower motor. If not check that. If you have then there would be an open wire between the relay and the resistor.
What are the losses in resistors?
The power lost in a resistor is(the current through the resistor) times (the resistance) watts. That's the same thing as(the voltage across the resistor)/(the resistance)watts.
What technology words that start with R?
Resistor Relay
Where is the blower motor relay on a 1997 Chevy K1500?
The blower motor relay is located behind the glove box compartment beside the blower motor resistor. When you remove the glove box compartment, just look to the left of the resistor and the relay is located directly beside it with a metal retaining frame holding both the resistor and the relay.
Where is the ac blower motor resistor on a 2004 Mitsubishi endeavor?
If I'm reading the Mitsubishi 2004 Endeavor repair service manual correctly, it is in the drivers fuse panel and has the markings OMRON, MR515993, 12 vdc, 24z200. I found the blower relay at rockauto.com. Their part number was 1r1645. It is a module (black, rectangular with 4 prongs), not a fuse. I should have added this is the location of the "relay". I guess it's the same as a resistor. *** This the location of the RELAY. It is NOT the resistor.
What is the difference between a blower motor resistor and relay?
A resistor is an electrical item/unit that takes a pre-determined voltage & controls the output to various voltages. A relay is an electrical switch
Is a cooling fan relay and a radiator fan relay the same?
Yes. Cooling fan, engine fan, and radiator fan relays are all the same thing.
Why won't a blower shut off?
Normally if you blower will not shut off, you have a bad resistor or relay...most likely the relay...
What is the difference between led and relay interface?
LED interface requires typical 220 Ohm resistor in series While in case of relay resistor comes across coil with its value depends on supply voltage
